Tenesha Williams

Welcome! I’m Tenesha Williams, M.Ed., LPC, co-owner of A&W Counseling & Consulting, PLLC, a Texas-based counseling practice dedicated to helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges.

With over 10 years of experience in education and 5 years of experience in mental health, I provide a supportive, judgment-free space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow.

I work with teens, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, and behavioral concerns.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and practical. Together, we’ll identify challenges, develop healthy coping strategies, and work toward meaningful, lasting change.

My approach is collaborative, supportive, and goal-oriented. I believe every client has unique strengths, and together we'll build on those while developing practical tools to navigate life's challenges. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered.

I use evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, and strengths-based interventions. My work focuses on helping clients improve emotional regulation, manage anxiety and depression, strengthen communication, build healthy relationships, increase self-confidence, and develop coping skills they can use long after therapy ends.

Whether you're navigating a life transition, feeling overwhelmed, or working through past experiences, we'll move at a pace that feels comfortable while creating meaningful, lasting change.

Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other in a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space. We'll talk about what brings you to therapy, explore your current challenges, discuss your personal history, and identify what you'd like to accomplish.

Together, we'll begin creating a personalized treatment plan based on your goals and strengths. You'll have the opportunity to ask questions, share any concerns, and discuss what you hope to gain from therapy. My goal is for you to leave your first session feeling heard, supported, and hopeful, with a clear understanding of the next steps in your journey.
